"Drop the Game" came off Lockjaw, the EP that Australian musicians Flume and Chet Faker made together, and Future Classic released it on 18 November 2013. The pair had already teamed up on "Left Alone" from Flume's self-titled 2012 album, and in September 2013 Flume announced they had cut a whole EP. This is the payoff: a slow, head-nodding electronic thump, downtempo and deep in the pocket.
Australia took to it. It climbed to 18 on the ARIA singles chart, went platinum for shipments of more than 70,000 copies and was voted number five in Triple J's Hottest 100 of 2013. It was up for Best Dance Release at the 2014 ARIA Music Awards, losing to Peking Duk's "High", and Germany finally got a CD single on 23 January 2015.
